Braith Anasta FIRES UP at the Bulldogs' handling of Kyle Flanagan | NRL 360 | FOX League 

Braith is a good dude, who actually cares for the wellbeing of the players. Very refreshing to see.

Safe to say braith was the absolute best choice to fill in for Ikin, he’s doing a great job on this show so far, excellent points from him

Braith knows what his talking about and his completely right here should have been in the number 7 from round 1

To play him now against the Panthers is definitely a hospital pass well said braith

Anasta's on the money here. Flanagan should have been the starting 7 for the Dogs from round 1. For any of his flaws, he is a genuine game manager who would compliment Burton perfectly

Braith Anastha, You have been there, done it, and know how to do it. Nicely said... We LOVE YOU, Braith.

Flanagan should head off to Tiger town he’ll get 7 or 8 yrs to prove himself, just ask Luke Brooks and they’ll give you $900 odd k to do it.

Flano is a solid player. On the level of a Tommy Deardan but different. There's a few teams that could utilise him better Canberra, Bunnies, Titans, Tigers, Knights, even as a backup.

Shane Flanagan is a better coach than Barrett that's who the Dogs should sign as coach.

Braith is so good! Well spoken and great points. He's come a long way. Very impressive

Why do so many commentators go out of their way to praise Trent Barret's coaching ability? He may be a fair halves coach, but he's pretty crappy as a head coach. I wish the young fella the best, but it's I think his coach don't like him. I think his coach has been over ruled .

Flanagan - Yeah thanks for the opportunity to allow me to get destroyed so you can boot me again. Barrett is a kook

Bulldogs to move Barrett as assistant coach and Flanagan coach

This is a stitch up for Flanagan. On the plus side, another club will pick him up for a good price and he will shine like he did at the chooks again. I wish the kid all the best.

I think that the reason Flanagan hasn’t played all season was to get confidence in the reserve grade team. He’s been playing good for the dogs reserve grade squad and now might be the time he’s got his groove on to change up this dogs side.

Also 1000% with Braith

Love ya Braith, good work. Go the Doggies, hope Flanagan does a job .

Exactly right Braith….! You’ve got to look after your halves and help them get to the confidence levels to do what they are able. Not drop em like a hot potato because you have no skill as a coach and you don’t have any nurturing abilities. Shame on you Baz……… Barrett should be the one that moves to the NSW cup… A head coach of 1st grade, absolutely laughable!

They’ve Chucked him in there just to be the scapegoat against the Panthers. Feel sorry because Flanagan can become a good player

Flanagan is on huge money and should be able to handle any situation. He’s a professional

Barrett is yet to prove he is a head coach. Disaster at manly with virtually the same team that came fourth. Doggies squad is actually quite good this year. This feels like it sets Kyle up for failure & buys Barrett more time. Sounds like Kyle will be the scapegoat for a spanking from the panthers. Barrett is my pick of first coach goneski, in front of Madge.

Maybe another Nathan Brown face slap will Motivate Trent Barrett😩

Braith Anasta is the man true legend!

Good young player getting thrown in to do a job against the panthers. WTF? Prob should go talk to Wayne and the Dolphins. Dogs aren't treating him fairly.

Fair enough ,Braith is on the money..give Kyle a fair GO!

facts from Braith

Well he played very well, and the Bulldogs played the best they've played in a long time. They actually looked like a first grade team with a half-back. Great stuff Kyle Flanagan.

The dogs have definitely done a dog act.

Kyle needs an experienced veteran next to him .. like how the Panthers brought in Maloney. He needs to be looked after to develop into a rep player but Gus would say 'wins' mean more jersey sales and interest in the club. Its not just about letting Kyle play minutes and the results not happening. Barrett to me is good in certain areas but he doesn't have eagle vision (yet) to be able to really identify the critical things needed for success. Hopefully Gus can do that.

Kenty’s eyes from 4:20 🤣🤣

Go Braith love how passionate you are in defending Flangah agree with you 100%

Worked for the broncos last few years. Don't see why they shouldn't keep changing halves

Dogs changing their 7 after each game and now throwing Flanagan in against the Panthers. They’ll get stuffed and he’ll be out and the rotation continues. At what point do you pick your best 7 and give him a run. You can’t keeping changing after each single defeat.

I remember when Bennett made Daniel Vidot play prop in QCUP. He was basically saying, ‘’we don’t want you and if you don’t start looking for a new team to free up our salary cap we’re going to make your life a living hell’’

Barrett is a terrible coach can't believe he still has a job.

Makes me laugh Flannagan had a decent year for the Roosters then thrown to the sword and now Sam Walker is struggling badly and nothing is said.

Fair this this is a tough go for the lad, but really he's in the position he is in because of how he played in the past.

Good On Ya Braith!!

IM WITH BRAITH!!

Very impressive from Anasta

It's a trial by fire that's for sure. I hope he sees it as a big opportunity. I think the good thing is if he doesn't perform its not the end of the world because noone expects him to. But if he has a big game it could really turn his career around. Hope he does really well

Shot Braith! Loving the conversation and the comment you said been there and don't like it.

Braith; Respect!

If you think Kyle is good enough to play the Premiers , then he should’ve started since round one, it’s just another one as ‘scapegoat’ and as Braith Anasta said, “a hospital pass”. I feel for Kyle and his Old man.

KYLE FLANIGAN should be at WESTS TIGERS to replace Luke Brooks

Flanagan is class, and not shy on the defensive end. Cant have a 7 that doesn't tackle. Someone in roosters didn't like him. Gould having his hands, in the pockets of most nrl teams... including doggies told barrett not to use flano. wtf ?

awwwww love the fire in the belly that's how you play LOL.

Anasta carrying on like a goose

Give Josh Ralph a run he won’t disappoint

If the rumours are true trade Flanagan to Leeds

Gus and Trent mucked this one up big time. Sidelining your game manager, the only bona fide halfback is just stupid. What a waste recruiting all the talent if they have no one to direct them in the pitch. Burton cannot do it on his own. He needs support.

They’re discussing this for a 2nd night 😐

shouldnt have left the shire lol. Hynes Flanno looks like a finals pairing imo

solid episode..yes the timing is very ordinary to give flanagon a real genuine fair go..if one puts their dark hat on..it does seem that this kid has certainly faced procedural unfairness this season and he is now being thrown under a bus against one hell of a ruthless rugby league side...His selection is obviously a knee jerk reaction to such an incredibly bad and coach killing loss last week..the drums are now beating for barrett as that big loss against the storm has really brought back the ghosts from the past..i really thought it would be different this year with their roster but last weeks lost was a very bitter pill

Why is buzz on the show tho

Everyone is talking about the Tigers coach but the Bulldogs coach must be on thin ice ... Wrong guy to coach that team going forward ... Being a spare wheel at Penrith for a year then going to the Bulldogs has been nothing other than a complete disaster

Flano wins it for us. Now he's the best decision we made all year so far lol

Kyle ran well at the roosters but I feel he’s been on the out ever since leaving easts. I wish him wel for this weekend but as the blokes above said .. bit of a hospital pass. I expect the panthers to win by 20+

FLANAGAN IS A TOP PLAYER! HE NEEDS TO BE ON THE FIELD EVERY ROUND

Why are we wasting airtime talking about this average player. Saw him play at Sharks and Roosters and saw nothing special about him. Just because his dad works at Fox doesn't mean you have to talk about him whole week.

Hes fuckin right

Hope they stick with the young lad for a few games after the loss.

It not just him it the whole team the only players that are playing good is Matt Dufty, Luke Thompson and Josh Jackson

That guy with the glasses is unbelievable. Seriously they have set this guy up to FAIL. Braith said it so well and he's absolutely right, i hope Flanagan nails it 🙏 i hope he gets a contract at a normal club with professional people. the Bulldogs did him wrong big time. No wonder the dogs are in the position they're in.

And if they win then it's a masterstroke 🤪

Yeah gotta admit, him not even training with the top side that’s pretty fucked up

The point is Barrett can't coach, simple as thar He has a 13% win ratio as head coach in 4 seasons.. He had superstars at manly and a immortal coach, player, bloke in the late bozo, and told him, your advice but needed.. That tells you all, he has no idea

How much of this falls on Gus Gould 👀

Why not now braithe? Does he get paid to play footy or sit on the sidelines?

👀😂😂 go braith truth

brent read wishes he was paul kent

Good media isnt a shouting match..

Anasta is a goose

i 100 percent agree with braith here. Flanagan will go out, get targeted by luai and kikau, and then get destroyed in the media as "not being nrl worthy"

His form demands selection. Im sure he doesnt care who he plays just that his playing nrl again

Matt Burton is the only hope true, what about the captain who's actually won the most primerships at that club 😂

I'd take him at the warriors to partner Johnson

Maybe this is just me being a stickler for accountability, but it seems kinda pathetic to me that Brent Read didn't even try to set a clear standard for Flanagan to meet against the Panthers. "He just has to do his job and play well!" What does that mean Brent? What's reasonable to expect from him; keeping the Panthers less than 44 points above the Dogs? Less than 50 above? What's reasonable to expect from a kid (who's been kept out of training with the worst side in the comp) to achieve against arguably the best side in the comp?

I agree with Braith

Braith is 💯 right that other bloke needs to stop whinging and agree to what Braith is putting down

Come to the broncos 🤘🏾✊🏾

Someone give braithe a cuddle. Sounds like he needs it. Reedy is right.

Anasta on the money I really hope for his sake kyle comes out and has a blinder! Prove all the doubters wrong and ressurect his career not that he should have had to wasn't given much of a choice in my opinion! Good luck Kyle rub it in there face mate. 🍻🤭🤙

Please keep Braith so much better than Vonny and very similar to Benny

I agree with Braith . Should be treated with a bit of respect. Poor kid’s been kicked around by the sharks and roosters as well. He deserves better.

Let's get these old fellas off this show and bring in some younger blood like Anasta.

Averillo isn’t a 1st grader, either is Wakeham. Flanagan should of started the year at 7 and Trent Barrett isn’t a coaches bumhole.

Buzz they did not do this for Matty Burton, you know that we all know that.. Please mate don't go there, Trent Barret is doing a Kevvy and palming off blame by swapping and ruining players

look flanagan is good but it's his attitude and he relies on the people he knows (his father knows) in the game to get to where he is, that's why he hasn't gotten a shot nothing more

Scripted drama. They take turns playing the heel. These flogs should be charged by the NRL for bringing the game into disrepute

Trent Barrett should be ASHAMED of himself. His treatment of Kyle Flanagan has been nothing short of DEPLORABLE. I really hope Kyle plays well with Burton & they stick with that combo cos if it works, then the only person who will have egg on their face, is Barrett.

What does braith want here? Teams not to make changes when they aren’t expected to win. Trents job is to find a winning combo. Im glad his not proud and refusing to make changes to admit mistakes

Don't these guys look like a bunch of flogs... All they do is repeat rumours. Last week Kent was crapping on about Flanno to the Tigers with the old man coaching or him going to super league. Turns out one phone call to Gus would have explained the Flanno situation. Imagine that, a journo actually doing their job & reporting facts instead of gossip...🤷‍♂️

i think the doggies will make top 3 this year 😭

Lol please Braith

Buzz Rothfeild you are past it mate time to give it up can barely string a sentence no players respect ya surely they can get someone better for this show ...

Braith saying bruh in a room of 60+ yr olds Is so cringe

Saw a gus interview about this after this show aired and boys dont know where you got your mail from but you better return to sender because on gus words hes been at every training session every video session and every weight session. A certain member of that panel is way past his use by date. Hates guses guts for years and any excuse to have a dig he does. In one sentence you guts say their throwing flano to the wolves and then later you say ge deserves his shot... go figure anyway go parra..

Fuxtel employees know how to rile up their Mongoloid anti bulldogs viewers. Dereliction of care..take a look at Boyd cordner and how many head knocks he sustained before his body said no more, and Luke Keary has also had severe head knocks, and were told the roosters are doing a great job with dealing with concussion injuries by these same talking heads.

barret is like kearney ... they just can't coach 1st grade
